Back at the end of the 1990-91 season, his Manchester City side came up against Derby County and he had scored earlier in the game with a lovely volley. Then misfortune struck.

City's keeper Tony Coton got a red card for bringing down Derby striker Dean Saunders in the box as he ran clean through on goal, which left a dilemma for City.

Well, it was a dilemma until Quinn quickly decided to take the gloves from Coton as the frustrated keeper walked off and the first task for Ireland's second highest international goalscorer was to save the resulting penalty, which you can watch here along with his earlier goal:

For a striker more used to beating goalkeepers, Quinn made an excellent save to keep out the spot kick and as an extra kick in the teeth for Derby, the result relegated the Rams from the top flight.

"That was fun. It still actually gets played a lot now," Quinn laughed as we reminded him off his mini mid-match job change.

"I saved a penalty and poor Dean Saunders. I meet Dean Saunders the odd time and he had a great career and he always says to me 'God, you ruined my career, Quinny' because I saved his penalty. And they got relegated the same day. It was a really tough gig for them."
